Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are infections that can be passed from one person to another through sexual contact. STDs can cause a wide range of symptoms, from mild to severe, and can have serious long-term consequences if left untreated.
STD testing is an important part of maintaining sexual health. Regular STD testing can help to detect and treat STDs early, when they are most curable. There are a variety of STD tests available, and the type of test that is right for you will depend on your individual risk factors and symptoms.
